### Laser Polygon

Auto Feature dialog box - Polygon

You can only use this dialog box to measure a hexagon feature (a polygon with 6 sides).

To measure a hexagon feature with a laser sensor:

1. Access the Auto Features dialog box, and select Polygon.

2. Do one of the following:

- Perform clicks on the CAD to give the polygon a location and vector. Manually enter any remaining information.

- Move the machine to the sphere location using the Laser tab of the Graphic Display window. Click the Read Point from Position button (). Manually enter any remaining information, such as the diameter, as needed.

- Manually enter all of the theoretical information for X, Y, Z, I, J, K, Diameter, and other parameters.

3. Enter the necessary information in the Probe Toolbox tabs. Cycle through the Laser Scan, Laser Filtering, and Laser Clipping properties tabs to enter the information.

4. If desired, click the Test button to test the feature.

WARNING: When you do this, the machine moves. To avoid injury, stay clear of the machine. To avoid hardware damage, run the machine at a slower speed.

5. Click Create and then Close.
